No other choice. The GB module uses data structures set up in NMR.h.

Seeing the appropriate large conformational changes upon point mutations
is a questionable goal, no matter how much computer time you have. You
should certainly be aware that GB force fields are much less mature than
the more traditional explicit water ones. Using GB is still a experimental
option at this point, so please proceed with that in mind.
..good luck..dac
